Semi-automated research assistant for academic research and software development, especially for computer science and AI researchers. Supports Claude Code, Codex CLI, and OpenCode across literature review, coding, experiments, reporting, writing, and project knowledge management.
zotero-mcp public surface: zotero_add_items_by_identifier is now the default paper-import path, zotero_reconcile_collection_duplicates is the standard post-import cleanup step, source-aware PDF cascade behavior is documented more accurately, and public vs internal diagnostics are now clearly separated.CLAUDE.md / CLAUDE.zh-CN.md files while installing repo-managed sidecar copies, and the default hook summaries were trimmed to reduce noisy temp-file / uncommitted-file output while keeping safer write-guard behavior.No comments yet.

Claude Scholar is not an end-to-end autonomous research system that tries to replace the researcher.
Its core idea is simple:
human decision-making stays at the center; the assistant accelerates the workflow around it.
That means Claude Scholar is designed to help with the heavy, repetitive, and structure-sensitive parts of research — literature organization, note-taking, experiment analysis, reporting, and writing support — while still keeping the key judgments in human hands:
In other words, Claude Scholar is a semi-automated research assistant, not a “fully automated scientist.”
Claude Scholar is especially well-suited to:
It can still help in other research settings, but its current workflow design is most aligned with computer science, AI, and adjacent computational research.
